Conflict Minerals, Rebels and Child Soldiers in Congo

Warlords, soldiers, and child laborers all toil over a mineral you\'ve never even heard of. Coltan is a conflict mineral in nearly every cell phone, laptop, and electronic device. It\'s also tied to the deaths of over 5 million people in Congo since 1990.

VICE travels to West Africa to rummage through the messy remains of a country ravaged by 14 years of civil war. Despite the United Nation\'s eventual intervention, most of Liberia\'s young people continue to live in abject poverty, surrounded by filth, drug addiction, and teenage prostitution. The former child soldiers who were forced into war have been left to fend for themselves, the murderous warlords who once led them in cannibalistic rampages have taken up as so-called community leaders, and new militias are lying in wait for the opportunity to reclaim their country from a government they rightly mistrust.

Along the US-Mexico border, the notorious cartel gang \'The Zetas\' are increasingly recruiting child soldiers. This report investigates this terrifying aspect of the drug wars that have raged the border.
\"When you drive around you see lots of houses with black ribbons\", explains a guide in the border town of Nuevo Laredo. \"This means someone who lived there has died. Most of the deaths are young people killed in this cruel war.\" For decades, hundreds of teenagers have been drawn into the violent world of drug smuggling and murder, sent to the frontline in battles against rival cartels and the Mexican army. \"It\'s easy to pull the trigger. But the moment you do that, your life changes fast. Why? Because you\'ve got blood on your hands\", explains a man who joined The Zetas at thirteen years old....

Child Soldiers: From Cradle to War

Child Soldiers Song

Child Soldiers Song

Child Soldiers Song
(New studio version) by Suzanne Becking.
Lyrics by Suzanne, 2012 (C)
The rebels found you, you wanted to run,
They promised a good life, decided to take the gun.
Walking for miles and miles, all day and all night,
Struggling to survive, with strangers by your side.
Forced into combat, saw many friends die,
Now you realize, it\'s all one big lie.
Child soldiers, in Africa
Child soldiers, in Ethiopia
Child soldiers, Sierra Leone
Child soldiers, in the Congo
The rebels fooled you, you njeed to get out,
In war there\'s no winners, you\'re better off without.
Walking for miles and miles, all day and all night,
Find a safer place, where you can be all right.
People don\'t want you, there are no jobs,
Got to live in the streets, the nightmare never stops.
Child soldiers, in Asia
Child soldiers, in Myanmar
Child soldiers, in India
Child soldiers, in Bangladesh
The rebels took your innocence away,
The right to be a child, to learn, to love, to play.
Once you lived to fight, now you fight to live,
You\'ll have to forget, you\'ll have to forgive.
You have to show them, you can work with those hands,
\'Cause everybody deserves a second chance.
Child soldiers, in America
Child soldiers, in Colombia
Child soldiers, in Nicaragua
Child soldiers, in Mexico
